Crypto investors looking to invest in early projects have a lot of options to choose from today. From initial coin offerings (ICOs) to initial DEX offerings (IDOs), there’s no shortage of ways for crypto enthusiasts to get involved in the space and potentially earn high returns on their investments. However, with so many different platforms out there, it can be difficult to know which one will provide the best returns and lowest risks — making careful research essential before committing any funds. 

Bybit is proud to present ByStarter, its latest platform. Find out more in this article about what ByStarter is, how you can participate in it and how much you can expect to earn from it.

Key Takeaways:

  • ByStarter is a token sale platform on Bybit that offers users a unique opportunity to invest in early-stage projects.
  • Every ByStarter project goes through four different stages — Warm-up Period, Subscription Period, Allocation Period and Results Announcement.
  • Learn how you can get in early on promising projects with ByStarter by following the detailed guide below.

What Is ByStarter?

ByStarter is a cutting-edge token sale platform revolutionizing the crypto investment game. Featuring a rigorous selection process to ensure only the most innovative projects are showcased, ByStarter offers users a unique opportunity to invest in early-stage projects before they hit centralized exchanges. 

Although a token listing isn't guaranteed, ByStarter grants access to a world of possibilities to savvy investors — especially those keen on investing in the next big thing. And it doesn't just stop there: ByStarter is also a platform for projects looking to raise funds, despite already having completed their initial exchange offering (IEO) — thus making it a flexible and dynamic platform for businesses regardless of their stage of development. 

How Does ByStarter Work?

Each ByStarter project has four main periods — Warm-up, Subscription, Allocation and Results Announcement. 

Warm-up Period

The Warm-up Period of a ByStarter project occurs in the days that lead up to the official launch, when you can subscribe to participate in ByStarter. During the Warm-up Period, those interested in participating need to register for a Bybit account and complete the verification process. To ensure a seamless subscription experience, it’s strongly recommended that you make a deposit of at least $100 worth of tokens during the Warm-up Period. However, if you’ve missed the Warm-up Period, it’s still advisable for you to make the deposit before your subscription without delay.

Subscription Period

The Subscription Period is when you’ll answer the ByStarter project’s corresponding quiz and commit a predetermined amount of funds according to the terms and conditions of the project.

If you’re interested in committing to multiple projects during the Subscription Period, be sure to check out the terms and conditions of each project first. Some projects may allow you to commit to only one sale option, while others may allow you to commit to more than one sale option at the same time. 

Please note that once you’ve committed, you’re not allowed to make any amendments. The tokens will be locked and they cannot be transferred, withdrawn or traded until after the Allocation Period.

Also, keep in mind that your payment must be made before the Subscription Period ends in order for your subscription to be valid. 

Allocation Period

The Allocation Period is when winners will be randomly selected by the system. There are three outcomes for the distribution results, as follows. 

Receive Full Allocation

If you’ve successfully won a full allocation, all the tokens you’ve committed will be exchanged for the equivalent value of the new project tokens. These new project tokens will then be airdropped to your Funding Account. 

Let’s say that the new project token is Token ÎČ, and 1 Token ÎČ is worth 2 USDT. If you commit 100 USDT and emerge victorious, you’ll receive a whopping 50 Token ÎČ in exchange.

Receive Partial Allocation

For every ByStarter project, there will certainly be one user who only wins a partial allocation. If you’ve won a partial allocation, part of the committed tokens will be exchanged for an equivalent value of new project tokens. The corresponding amount of committed tokens will be deducted from your committed amount, while the new project tokens allocated to you and the remaining amount of committed tokens will be credited to your Funding Account.

Picture this: You enter a raffle with nine other people, hoping to win a slice of the 1,000α allocation pie, with 1α being equivalent to 1 USDT. You emerge as the 10th person to win an allocation. Despite your subscription of 150 USDT, there are only 100α left to go around. As such, you’ll only win a partial allocation of 100α. The remaining 50 USDT will be returned to your Funding Account. 

Failure to Receive Allocation

If you fail to win an allocation, no worries, as you’ll be able to get back the full amount of your committed tokens. 

Results Announcement

During this period, all winners selected during the Allocation Period will receive their token airdrop.

Please note that some ByStarter projects will have a lock-up period or a vesting period. The lock-up period prohibits token holders from selling any tokens during a pre-planned time frame, whereas the vesting period refers to tokens being locked for project members and early investors for a specific duration before the tokens are released. These periods are crucial in ensuring the stability and success of these crypto ventures.
